that bike is pure sex, but yea, might be a while before you sell it at that price. if i asked that for my mx-ed out 09 i would probably get laughed at, even 3500 might be to high (to bad thats about what i owe still).

as for head wrap, im strongly against it.

If that was in Oz it would be a bargain, there's dead stock bikes with same miles, same year selling for as much or even more.

Can I ask how easy it was to fit the fairing, I assume it was the generic model?

Thanks! The fairing just takes time, because at the same time was installing the HID headlights and the Vapor gauge. Got a guy coming to look at it today, he didn't flinch at the price. I'm confident it will sell easily to someone who appreciates all that's been done to it.

I like what you have done with the bike. In my opinion it looks good. However I think the price may be a little high. Where it should be I don't know. What I do know is I bought my 2007 klx250s brand new in 2008 for $3900, with tax and plates it came to around $4200. I was not charged any freight or setup because it was a left over. I understand you have put alot of mods and work ( again looks great ) but $4500, I don't think so, but good luck.

I have found you don't get much return on frackle/mods when you sell a bike, maybe 25% at best. Some people are even turned of by mods, prefering a straight stock bike.
When considering mods, I realize they are something I am doing for myself and will never get that money back on resale.

WTF. Poor guy/gal.
These should have been a priority on a car moded that much. May have save a whole lot of heartache.

To the right buyer, 3800.00 is a good deal. The "right buyer" will be someone that wants all that done, but, doesn't want to do it themselves. You've done some nice upgrades (Bill Blue BB and carb, especially!). If you're not in a hurry, that "right buyer" will eventually find you.

I laughed out loud when I read this. "Jesus crap" is now my new catch phrase.

Beautiful bike, by the way. You don't see too many KLX's like that, especially here in SoCal.
